Breakthrough In Anthrax Investigation?

Discovery of equipment for handling toxic materials in a pond in Frederick, Maryland has sparked hopes that the anthrax investigation may finally be making progress. Well, maybe. But, tantalizing as the discovery is, it is not clear how it will lead to anything more concrete. Most hopeful, perhaps, is that the FBI discovered the sunken equipment by acting on a “tip.” The Post article linked to above has no information on the source or nature of the tip, but if someone who knows something is talking to the F.B.I., the case may indeed be on its way to solution.
